Children's stories: How new computer helped Sasha, IDP from Kharkiv, to get her hobbies back

We at Star for Life Ukraine began collecting personal stories of war-affected children. Since the start of the project we have heard manyr of such tales. Each of them is very personal and touching. That's why we decided to start sharing these stories to infrom as many people as possible about talented schoolchildren, whom we together with our partners help develop their skills and create comfortable conditions for learning.

The first story we want to share is the story of girl Sasha from Kharkiv. She was forced to leave her hometown and move to the Ivano-Frankivsk Rregion with her family.

Thought Sasha is hundreds kilometers away from her home and friends, the girl continues to lead an active life. After online lessons witht her home school in Kharkiv, she goes to the city to sports, Physics classes, English, financial literacy, and attends IT courses from Star for Life Ukraine and the Center for Educational Innovations.

Sasha's life goes on. During this year, the town she lives in has become almost native for the girl. It’s all thanks to activities that help not to give up and provide opportunities for development.

One of these opportunities was the computer that Sasha received as a gift from Star for Life Ukraine with the support of our partner, the Swedish company Nexer. We are glad that we could make the girl happy and received the most valuable thing in return - sincere gratitude and happy eyes!

Sasha is very happy that her distance learning at her home school in Kharkiv with the new computer has become more comfortable. And also the girl plans to continue programming outside the computer class.

Once again, we would like to express our gratitude to our partners, who made it possible. And we invite everyone, to join the project to bring to life little dreams of little people with great talents and great ambitions!
